    Hi All.
    I've been lurking for several months here since I replaced my trusty 2000 Tundra TRD, which I bought in 2001 and dubbed "Ol'Bessy", with a new to me 2014 TRD Limited, yet un-named. I loved my Ol' Bessy so much that I kept it around for 8 months to make sure that the "new" truck is worthy. I finally sold it to a good friend.
    No looking back since I am really digging the 3rd gen. Even though it is a HUGE BEAST, One of the two drawbacks compared with the Gen 1's perfect size (the other drawback is less stock ground clearance), the new truck is so easy to drive and the power upgrade while towing is very welcome! The comfort is incredible too!
    While I have been lurking, the community here has given me quite a few great ideas to personalize my new surf/tow machine!

    @MotoTundra. Yes, it was rough watching the Ol'Bessy drive away. I wanted to keep it and really dial it in, but I don't have the time or space. Fortunately, my buddy owns it now and he's loving it!
